Availability based resource scheduling

A system for managing resources over a network, comprising:

• a network computer, comprising:
• a memory that stores at least instructions;
• and
• one or more processors that execute instructions that perform actions, including:
• determining one or more resources that are unassigned to one or more open appointments;
• generating one or more selection models based on the one or more open appointments and one or more characteristics of one or more clients, wherein the one or more selection models include machine learning classifiers and one or more of heuristics, formulas, conditions, instructions, parameters, or state machines;
• determining a criteria for pre-qualifying each of the one or more clients to receive one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments, wherein the criteria includes one or more of geographic location, password, personal identification number (PIN), a resource previously assigned to an open appointment accepted by the one or more clients, an organization currently associated with the one or more clients, or calendar availability information for the one or more clients or the one or more resources;
• employing the criteria and the one or more selection models to determine each client that is qualified to accept one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments;
• providing the one or more invitations to accept the one or more open appointments to the one or more qualified clients based on one or more notification models that define one or more communication modes to communicate the one or more invitations with the one or more candidate clients over a period of time;
• reserving an open appointment based on a qualified client accepting an invitation to the open appointment;
• in response to the qualified client confirming the acceptance of the invitation to the open appointment and before expiry of the period of time, closing the open appointment by assigning the one or more resources and the qualified client to the closed appointment;
• and
• in response to expiry of the period of time and non-confirmation by the qualified client for the open appointment, performing further actions, including:
• unreserving the open appointment for the qualified client;
• employing the one or more selection models to determine one or more other qualified clients that are qualified to accept one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments;
• and
• providing the one or more invitations to accept the one or more open appointments to the one or more other qualified clients based on the one or more notification models;
• and
• employing a global positioning systems (GPS) device to provide geo-location information for the qualified client, wherein the geolocation information is employed to select one or more of a time zone, spoken language, financial currency, or calendar format for inclusion in the one or more invitations provided to each qualified client;
• and
• a client computer, comprising:
• another memory that stores at least instructions;
• and
• one or more processors that execute instructions that perform actions, including:
• providing one or more communications that indicate an acceptance of an invitation.

A processor readable non-transitory storage media that includes instructions for managing resources over a network, wherein execution of the instructions by one or more hardware processors performs actions, comprising:

• determining one or more resources that are unassigned to one or more open appointments;
• generating one or more selection models based on the one or more open appointments and one or more characteristics of one or more clients, wherein the one or more selection models include machine learning classifiers and one or more of heuristics, formulas, conditions, instructions, parameters, or state machines;
• determining a criteria for pre-qualifying each of the one or more clients to receive one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments, wherein the criteria includes one or more of geographic location, password, personal identification number (PIN), a resource previously assigned to an open appointment accepted by the one or more clients, an organization currently associated with the one or more clients, or calendar availability information for the one or more clients or the one or more resources;
• employing the criteria and the one or more selection models to determine each client that is qualified to accept one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments;
• providing the one or more invitations to accept the one or more open appointments to the one or more qualified clients based on one or more notification models that define one or more communication modes to communicate the one or more invitations with the one or more candidate clients over a period of time;
• reserving an open appointment based on a qualified client accepting an invitation to the open appointment;
• in response to the qualified client confirming the acceptance of the invitation to the open appointment and before expiry of the period of time, closing the open appointment by assigning the one or more resources and the qualified client to the closed appointment;
• and
• in response to expiry of the period of time and non-confirmation by the qualified client for the open appointment, performing further actions, including:
• unreserving the open appointment for the qualified client;
• employing the one or more selection models to determine one or more other qualified clients that are qualified to accept one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments;
• and
• providing the one or more invitations to accept the one or more open appointments to the one or more other qualified clients based on the one or more notification models;
• and
• employing a global positioning systems (GPS) device to provide geo-location information for the qualified client, wherein the geolocation information is employed to select one or more of a time zone, spoken language, financial currency, or calendar format for inclusion in the one or more invitations provided to each qualified client.
